So it don't count, (no offence to whoever was named Australia's top shuffler) but I doubt one small meetup qualifies as a 'National Competition' whereever it's held. Good god, these SHFL people are hopeless<BR/><BR/>The day was a dud in crowd size. There were 90% empty seats and just a couple of dozen on the dance floor. Pretty poor compared to the other shuffle meet-ups that draw 100+ shufflers.<BR/><BR/>I've seen a few melb forums horrified at SHFL and they can't believe the dj's were involved in such a shonky event. Some of them ripped right into Bexta and Mark Midro over it, suggesting they go back to sydney...but I wouldn't force them on our sydney shuffle friends either.Garry Shepherdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02906347758525272436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4750099299009228761.post-56840359226932287732009-03-10T14:31:00.000+11:002009-03-10T14:31:00.000+11:00here's the link to the REAL 1st Official Shuffle M...here's the link to the REAL 1st Official Shuffle Meet-up Melbourne Cup Day November 8 2007. It was arranged by shufflers on the melbshuffle forum. It was a great day. I'm surprised the PHD dj didn't know about it with 1000's of PHD hoodies there. Maybe he does know but he's sold out. dunno<BR/><BR/>But judge for yourselves, it was a huge successful event run by shufflers on a shuffle forum, all for free. Even the security guards and Fed Sq management were impressed with how well behaved everyone was. There to shuffle, not to cause trouble.<BR/><BR/>I'm proud to have been there and will defend it's title as the 1st Official Melbourne Shuffle Meet-up to be held in Federation Square.<BR/><BR/>There's some superb shuffling in this vid, well worth a look.<BR/><BR/>[CUP DAY] Shuffle Meetup Nov 8 2007<BR/>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=buifqypY2F4Garry Shepherdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02906347758525272436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4750099299009228761.post-77523604996409668502009-03-10T13:07:00.000+11:002009-03-10T13:07:00.000+11:00Thanks Templeth.

The first official meet-up was Cup Day Nov 2007 and it was free. I was there, it was a great meet-up. These SHFL jokers haven't got a clue, You'd think at least the PHD Dj would know that.<BR/><BR/>No offense to the shufflers who have entered or the other prize sponsers, but when a dance competition offers a pro DJ turntable as one of the major prizes you know they're not shufflers, how many shufflers even own old vinyl records?.<BR/><BR/>And who is this video clip for, what act ? - make sure you get a signed contract with them before you appear ;)<BR/><BR/>And what Malaysian meet-up? It doesn't even have a name, yet it's the main prize !!<BR/><BR/>All that says to me is...<BR/><BR/>DODGY DODGY DODGYGarry Shepherdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02906347758525272436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4750099299009228761.post-9420059373155698212009-03-10T01:07:00.000+11:002009-03-10T01:07:00.000+11:00"because I don't trust them"Love it"because I don't trust them"<BR/><BR/><BR/>Love itTemplethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14298358562866027958noreply@blogger.com
